AJAX - good or evil

The below article covers interesting point about AJAX...

Consider this example,

1) You are filling some bank's loan form..In the middle u get a call from yr friend saying don't apply loan in that bank..And yr friend suggests some other bank name....In that case you are closing that page without pressing the submit button...But if that page uses AJAX, your information have been updated their database and u can get a call at anytime from that bank ..

2) You are visiting one website...u r doing nothing in that page..not even clicked any single link...But you know , if that site uses AJAX, yr mouse move attributes and the time spent on that page, have been stored in their database..

like this we can say more examples.....But still I consider AJAX is the next revolution in the web..

MY WISHES & DREAMS

Swami Vivekananda :
"Civilizations have arisen in other parts of the world. In ancient and modern times, wonderful ideas have been carried forward from one race to another...But mark you, my friends, it has been always with the blast of war trumpets and the march of embattled cohorts. Each idea had to be soaked in a deluge of blood..... Each word of power had to be followed by the groans of millions, by the wails of orphans, by the tears of widows. This, many other nations have taught; but India for thousands of years peacefully existed. Here activity prevailed when even Greece did not exist... Even earlier, when history has no record, and tradition dares not peer into the gloom of that intense past, even from until now, ideas after ideas have marched out from her, but every word has been spoken with a blessing behind it and peace before it. We, of all nations of the world, have never been a conquering race, and that blessing is on our head, and therefore we live...."



Whenever I read about my nation its always start with like this "India never invaded any country in her last 10000 years of history."..that's OK..what's next????..i don't know..howlong we guys speak about our tradition & culture and other blah..blah old stuffs..

lets think SOMETHING BIG...like our beloved president....I alot more reasons are there why i am so much admired by mr Kalam...the below link information also one reason in that list....
my wish also the same like his vision.....that's the reason I liked the above picture very much...

Dr Kalam Says 'The first vision for India was to gain independence. The second vision for a country of one billion people is to develop into a strong nation, economically strong and self-reliant, and its people to be globally respected.'

Happy Independence day....Jai Hind.

Uninvited G(ue/ho)st

Working in IT field is a gift.Always I feel like that . Just spend 10 mins and speak to any other department guys then u can understand what i am saying.(i am speaking knowledge wise...for example, everyday morning 7:00am what i am seeing in a daily newspaper is always an old news for me because i know most of the news from other blogs or from google alerts or someway the previous night itself...)

In this field, forwarding mails also one part of the job(even we can justify like saying, one way to keep in touch with other person)


Everyday i too get alot of forwarded mails. Then i too fwd. that to my close circles..then he/she will continue that job ....atlast that mail again will reach my mailbox.Last week i got a mail like that which contains the photo's of the people those who suffered in recent flood in MUMBAI(BOMBAY).In that ppt slide i got this picture which has something peculiar than other slides.




After I saw this picture, I had a questions like
1) when this child will come down? (that child not even removed his school shirt)
2) where will they sleep?
3) where will they sit and eat? ( if you notice well, that mother preparing something in the gas)
4) howlong that child will sit like this?
...
...


If anyone asks you to write an essay about middle class people life in india, the above picture is enough..really, "a picture is worth 1000 words" .
In India, Last year we faced "tsunami", this year "floods" in unexpected area, then next year...???
no problem...we are ready to face any surprise gifts given by GOD.
